Ms Estelle Morris

Whether to organise school breakfast clubs is a matter for local decision. Information about them is not collected centrally.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what monitoring he has evaluated on recent changes in the nutritional values of school meals. [28821]

Ms Estelle Morris

Statutory nutritional standards for school meals were abolished by the previous Administration in 1980. Local education authorities and schools have since been responsible for deciding and monitoring the nutritional values of meals they provide. The Government propose to introduce new nutritional standards and will be consulting on these.
